He easily jumped from the mast post to the cable a few meters away. He grabbed the cable with one hand and slid to the deck. With his golden hair that was far more reflective than ordinary people, George was able to spot him among the sleeping people at a glance. Found the first mate Dio who was snoring softly.
"It's shift change time!"
"Who...bastard! Oh, damn, Qiaoqiao, it's you! What a bad joke, really bad. Is it time to change the shift?"
The telescope, which was blown cold by the sea breeze, was thrown on Dio's handsome face, so that the first mate was directly awakened by the cold touch. The hand under the pillow subconsciously grasped the short knife hidden in the pillow.
But when Dio finally saw the appearance of the person in front of him, the short knife he subconsciously drew forward was easily caught by George with two fingers. After realizing the difference in strength again, Dio had no choice but to put away the dagger.
Dio's anger once caused countless ignorant crew members to suffer, but when faced with George, who looked at ease, Dio had no choice but to admit that he was unlucky.
Besides, Dio is the first mate of this ship after all, and Dio will never be ambiguous about the shift change.
The position of the lookout is not so easy to replace, because the lookout is a high-risk position and is generally performed by sailors with excellent eyesight, skill and experience.
Unfortunately, due to the stormy weather in the past few days, one of the two previous lookouts died from a fall from a high altitude and the other died from a lightning strike. The "examples" they set in their unlucky deaths directly discouraged other crew members from taking this position.
Instead, George and first mate Dio took shifts, with George on the night shift and Dio on the day shift.
Of course, after George, who "neglected his duty" and fell asleep at night, returned to the cabin that mixed the smell of salty sweat and rum after replacing Dior, he definitely did not continue to fall asleep.
George, who had just obtained the ancient soul and achieved a breakthrough in death spells to the third level of expert spells, not only needed to use this "leisure time" to consolidate his newly improved strength, but also had to find a way to further refine the blood crystal. The resentful soul curse.
As long as the Resentment Curse cannot be solved, George's fire spells will not be able to be used at full power. In terms of unblocking the curse, expert death spells will definitely have more advantages than advanced death spells. This is why George chose the death spell. Ancient Soul, rather than the main reason for strengthening chaos spells.
However, in addition to the trouble caused by the Resentment Curse, another trouble also came one after another when George boarded the ship——
Pirates on the same ship!
The crew of the Dark Knight also had different attitudes towards George, a new face who had just arrived. Captain Duck naturally had no interest in explaining George's background to his men, and out of ridiculous pride, the first mate Dio and the fellow sailors who were beaten were also surprisingly unanimous in their silence.
As a result, George, who was full of mysteries, suddenly became the focus of everyone. Some expressed curiosity about him, while others felt contempt for him; some expressed friendship with him, while others wanted to stir up trouble.
"Hey, Bob, look at this new guy. His legs are crossed and his palms are folded. This is not a sleeping position. He is meditating!"
"Shut up, Ben. Our young archmage is just meditating. Don't disturb him. Otherwise, I heard that mages will self-destruct when they go crazy!"
"Wha...what?! Really or not?! Damn it, just bluff me. This guy is so young. Could he be a mage? I have seen a few mage. They are all immortals with fluttering white beards. Each one is worth as much as 2,500,000 to 80,000 yuan. How can they, experts who are as much as national treasures, think so highly of our broken ship? If this kid is a mage, then our first mate Dio is really a descendant of a vampire!"
"Watch your bad mouth, idiot! Even if the first mate is usually easy to talk to, if he hears what you say, we will both be whipped!"
"Why don't I just talk about it casually...anyway, this little brat who only knows how to put on a cold face all day long, I don't like it no matter how I look at him, he is dry, numb, and not mellow at all. !”
"I think so! Then we might as well take advantage of our lunch break..."
